Remember, in those ancient times not everybody could read....scholars keep working and now more or less everything goes along with everthing in the Bible. Revelation at the end have a thing like closing too. Pretty much they agreed on what was in or out. They were not even 'catholics' at that time. I think Revelation's literary value is outstanding.

Peace and Security and Mike Flynn
by SouthCentral ini was on a jw page recently and some dubs were openly predicting the end of the world in a year.
mike flynn (trump advisor) mentioned having one religion in america and the dubs went crazy.
someone even mentioned 1975 on the thread.. it seems to have since been deleted; but there were about 50 comments before i couldn't find it again.

Yeah....it could be something like 'new light'.
"The Bible says about 'not abandoning meetings' but it doesn't say nothing about how frequently....so we are selling all of the Kingdom Halls and keeping the Assembly Hall for like bi-monthly meetings. Besides, figuratively the Noah's Ark door is closed now!

''Deliverance at Hand''. Now 15 years on &....
by Beth Sarim in....and still no big 'a'.
armageddon.. it was 15 years ago dubland was in lala dream-like almost trance-like state hanging on the notion the big 'a' was imminent.. it was ironic.
ironic at that time was when.... i was starting my long waking-up process.

The King of the North and the South, who are they now?
by Anony Mous ini know several wit-lesses that to date are researching these topics.. however i haven't heard much from any publications recently about it, i think the latest refresh was ~10 years ago.
since then the power of the us has severely diminished (or at least the rhetorics about it has), russia is a small potato in modern era, the eu is a cowardly dog in the eyes of everyone and we have the rise of china which is as far as military might is concerned, a paper tiger.. we also have the rise of islam, especially since the end of the nato nation-building effort in afghanistan which is now in power in most of the middle east and africa, as well as regions of asia and growing strong in europe.. does anyone have noooo light about these developments.
is islam the king of the south?

Can a person order a free bible through the JWs?
by jwundubbed ini was researching the easiest bible to read (which the jw bible is not) and the best way to buy one online at low cost and it got me thinking.
the jw.org is doing videos and has a website.
have they joined the order-online phenomenon that is going on in the world today?
